Content is incorporated herein by reference, as illustrating completely herein.
Background technology
Addition process manufacturing process for manufacturing three-dimensional body is well-known.Addition process manufacture utilizes the calculating of object
Machine Computer Aided Design (CAD) data build three dimensional articles.These three dimensional articles can be by liquid resin, powder or other materials system
Into.
The known of addition process manufacturing process, non-limiting examples are stereolithography (SL).Stereolithography is one
Kind is used for the known method of the production product in quick modeling, prototype, pattern and some applications.SL uses the CAD of object
Data, the wherein data are converted into the thin cross section of three-dimensional body.These data load in a computer, computer control
Liquid radiation-curable resin composition that laser is received through in bucket scans cross sectional pattern, makes corresponding with cross section
Resin thin layer cure.Cured layer, another cross section of laser scanning, so as to make at the top of preceding layer are coated with resin
Another resin bed hardens.The process is repeated layer by layer until completing three-dimensional body.When originally forming, the three-dimensional body is usually not
It is fully cured, it is referred to as " green compact model (green model) ".Although being not required, after green compact model can be subjected to
Cure to strengthen the mechanical performance of finished product product.Such as the example of SL techniques is described in United States Patent (USP) 4,575,330.
Traditionally, laser serves as selected radiation source in addition process manufacturing process (such as stereolithography).Make
With gas laser come to cure liquid radiation-curable resin composition be known.Laser energy in stereolithography system
Transmission can be continuous wave (CW) or Q-switched pulse.CW lasers provide continuous laser energy, available for high-velocity scanning side
In method.In history, the wavelength tradition of the laser of several types, the wherein output of peak value spectrum is used in stereolithography
On in the range of 193nm to 355nm, but there is also other wavelength variations.The light that laser is sent is monochromatic, i.e. non-
Occurs total spectrum output of high percentage in often narrow wave-length coverage.In the industry in the addition process manufacture system based on laser,
Those to work under the peak value spectrum output of 355nm have become the most universal.
However, the system based on laser, particularly work under 355nm or peak value spectrum output close to 355nm that
A little systems are not without shortcoming.A large amount of power outputs of this system based on laser produce excessively in exposure spots sometimes
Heat, this may be harmful to resin.In addition, the point by point scanning on resin surface is required for using the laser of any wavelength,
When wanting cured cross sectional pattern complicated, this process may especially take.In addition, the system price based on 355nm laser
Costliness, and maintenance cost is high, high energy consumption.
Have begun to utilize with some relevant shortcomings of the system based on laser, other addition process manufacture systems to overcome
Image projection technology (image projection technology) is used as actinic radiation sources.One of example is liquid crystal
Show device (LCD), this technology is known in other industry (such as television set and computer monitor manufacture).Another non-limit
Property example processed is the digital light processing of Texas Instruments exploitationsDLP system is optionally transmitted and come from
The light of input source, and using controlled by the microchip for being referred to as Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) and be fixed on the DMD pixel-
Representative micro mirror, by light projection into desired output pattern or mask (mask).DLP technologies are exploited for image projection system
System, as the replacement display system based on LCD technology.With DLP system relevant outstanding image definition, brightness and uniformity
Image resolution ratio and the vital addition process manufacture of accuracy can be perfectly suitable for, because the border of the light of projection
The final border for defining the three-dimensional body that cure and produce.In addition, image projection system (such as LCD and DLP) provides
Theoretic speed advantage, because they can make whole cross-sectional layer while exposure and curing.In addition, when based on laser
When hardening time needed for system is proportional to the complexity of the cross section to be scanned, image projection system be considered with it is transversal
Face is unrelated, it means that the time for exposure to given layer will not change with any increase to the shape complexity of given layer.This
So that they are particularly suitable for the product with complicated and fine geometry that is manufactured by addition process.
DLP and LCD is not the alternative for itself producing light;And it there is provided a kind of by the light processing from existing light source
Into the mode of more desirable pattern.Therefore, the same input light source for still needing coupling.Although it is input to image projection system
Light can come from any source, including traditional lamp or even laser, but more generally useful, from one or more light emitting diodes
(LED) input light is calibrated.
LED is the semiconductor devices that light is produced using electro optical phenomenon.Now, for addition process manufacture system
Light of the LED light source launch wavelength between 300-475nm, wherein 365nm, 375nm, 395nm, 401nm, 405nm and 420nm are
Common peak value spectrum output.On LED light source deeper into discussion refer to textbook " Light-Emitting Diodes ",
E.Fred Schubert, the second edition,E.Fred Schubert 2006, are gone out by Cambridge University Press
Version.LED is capable of providing following advantage:Compared to other light sources, they are longer to approach the efficiency continuous firing of peak value in theory
Time.Moreover, compared with the light optic system based on laser, their usually more energy efficient and maintenance costs are low, so as to cause institute
The initial cost and lasting cost having the right are relatively low.
Therefore, various addition process manufacture systems use one kind in following non-limiting optics profile instance:(1) only
Laser, (2) laser/DLP, (3) only LED, (4) LED/DLP, or (5) LED/LCD.System without using DLP technologies also may be used
To combine other calibration lens or condenser lens/mirror, so that light is optionally directed on liquid resin.
Recently, configured regardless of optics, newer addition process manufacture system has begun to more frequently use this
The light source of sample, the light source launch radiation in the case where exporting more preferable wavelength than the tradition under 355nm.Other are from monochromatic light
Transfer to select the light source of light of those transmittings with wider spectrum output distribution in source.Therefore, comprising based on laser/DLP,
This newer system of the optics configuration of LED, LED/DLP or LED/LCD is had begun to more wider than common in the past
Spatial distribution and longer wavelength peak value spectrum output operation.The wavelength wherein used is from 355nm to visible spectrum
Direction movement, some even with to visible-range peak value spectrum export.Such longer wavelength is (i.e. from about 375nm
To about 500nm) it is referred to as so far " ultraviolet/visible light ".
Some usually quoted of the current optics for being intended to be increasingly used in ultraviolet/visible light area are non-
It is restricted the reason is that:(1) ultraviolet/visible light operated within range light source cost reduction (initial cost and maintenance cost two
Person);And (2) compared to deeper into UV areas transmitting and the light source of all other situation all same, ultraviolet/visible light light source with
Lower energy transmitting radiation, therefore tissue is damaged smaller.This causes in accidental exposure, compared to those deeper into
To the light source of UV areas work, the harmfulness smaller of ultraviolet/visible light light source.As the popularization of addition process manufacture is in consumer, " production
The person of disappearing (prosumer) " and industry continue to increase in the segmenting market, and use relatively low, the less dangerous actinic radiation sources of utilization cost
Addition process manufacture system become more and more important to cure the demand of liquid photopolymer.
However, it is not without noticeable cost using the benefit of ultraviolet/visible light light source/light optic system.
So far, the shortcomings that maximum is the difficulty that exploitation is used to utilize the suitable photopolymer of the system of ultraviolet/visible light optics
Spend relative increase.One of the main reasons is:In addition to the energy of longer wavelengths of light reduces this natural phenomena, business light source
Intensity generally also with peak value spectrum output wavelength increase and reduce.Therefore, although traditional lamp based on 355nm laser
System may provide 1500W/cm on resin surface2Irradiation level, but the known business system in work about at 400nm only
About 1/1000 irradiation level of the irradiance value can be substantially provided in resin surface.In fact, for some more economical desktops
For unit (desktop units), by the existing business addition process manufacture system based on 365nm or 405nm DLP
The irradiation level of resin surface that provides of ultraviolet/visible light optics can be with as low as 0.1W/cm2Or even 0.0002W/cm2。
Emittance/intensity of these relative reductions causes by this ultraviolet/visible light optics in radiation curable resins
Generation photopolymerization reaction is more difficult, unless open-assembly time becomes long.This considerably increases the structure time of product in turn,
So as to reject the theoretical velocity advantage of photomask display system.In addition, in the market there are less light initiation system (particularly
Cation light initiation system), to promote the photopolymerization under this longer ultraviolet/visible light wavelength.
Relative to system (for example, system based on 355nm laser) the available various options to work deeper into UV areas,
Above-mentioned challenge causes the addition process manufacture system using the modern optical devices system to work in ultraviolet/visible light area available
The limited amount of photopolymer.
For the system using ultraviolet/visible light device, it is known that there are the resin of free redical polymerization.This resin leads to
Often by one or more (methyl) acrylate compounds (or organic compound of other free redical polymerizations) and for certainly
The free radical photo-initiation generated by base forms.United States Patent (USP) No.5,418,112 describes a kind of such free-radical curable
System.Although the relatively low energy that the resin of free redical polymerization is provided even in ultraviolet/visible light optics
It is also easy to cure with relatively low intensity, but it is not suitable for all addition process manufacture applications.First, it is considered suitable for addition
(methyl) acrylate based resin of method manufacturing process generally produces the mechanicalness for being incorporated in many final use applications
The curing product of energy deficiency.Therefore, its product produced is usually not sufficiently strong for the application of non-prototype.Further, since
The problem of overstrain caused by shrinkage during curing, this resin usually shows deformation, such as produce warpage
Or lopsided product.This problem is aggravated in the addition process manufacture machine of large platform, wherein the shrinkage effect accumulated
The product warpage or deformity cured when object becomes much larger should be exaggerated.These problem on deformation can be entangled by following software
Just, which causes known shrinking percentage by changing the cad file from its generation stereoscopic three-dimensional product.However, software correction
It is not enough to be fully compensated with complicated shape or needs across in the product of the close dimensional tolerance of long range
Deformation.
Resin suitable for another well-known type of addition process manufacture system is " can to mix " cured resin, or
Person includes those following:(1) compound of epoxides, oxetanes or other types of cationically polymerizable;(2) one
Kind or a variety of cation light initiators;(3) compound of acrylate or other types of free redical polymerization;(4)
One or more free radical photo-initiations.This example for mixing cured system is in such as United States Patent (USP) No.5,434,196
In be described.For a long time, it is known that the curing product that this resin can cause to produce by addition process manufacturing process has excellent
In the mechanical performance of all acrylic ester base resin.It is also embodied in addition, cured system can be mixed better than all acrylic ester system:
It is influenced smaller by the shrinkage problem of long-standing problem all acrylic ester system.
However, since the ring opening process of cationic polymerization is usually slower than radical polymerization and needs more activation energy
Amount, so being substantially more difficult to ensure that this formulation for addition process manufacture application fully cures or successfully " build " three-dimensional article
Body.Also, cure at least part after it can mix cured resin and be subjected to actinic radiation, the green compact being generated by it
The mechanical strength (or " green strength ") of model is also not enough to be used in the manufacture application of many addition processes, the mechanical strength (or
" green strength ") it is to be measured for example, by elasticity modulus or fracture strength.Compared with conventional system, with relatively low energy and by force
The ultraviolet/visible light optics of degree transmitting radiation significantly exacerbates these problems.
Due to the limitation to cationic polymerization, so far, there is not yet the liquid for mixing known to addition process manufacture
Body radiation curable resins, it is adapted to the more modern addition process manufacture system using ultraviolet/visible light optics.In addition,
There is no liquid radiation curable resins manufactured for addition process-can mix curing or other-this addition processes that are used for manufacture
Liquid radiation curable resins be suitable for using ultraviolet/visible light optics addition process manufacture system, while (1)
Cure fast enough, (2) can assign enough mechanical strengths, and (3) anti-shrink or warpage properties, so as to prevent cured by its
Three dimensional articles deform.
By mentioned earlier, it is clear that:Outstanding demand is to provide suitable for using ultraviolet/visible light light so far
That learns the addition process manufacture system of device mixes cured fluid radiation resin combination, it can produce mechanical property at least
Equal to the existing three dimensional articles for mixing curing materials designed by traditional 355nm system designs based on laser.

Unexpectedly, however, it is found by the applicant that:Above-mentioned ultraviolet/visible light directly excites cation light initiator usual
It is unsuitable for realizing solid using fully mixing for the composition used in the addition process manufacturing process of ultraviolet/visible light optics
Change.While not wishing to be bound by any theory, but can consider:Since the free base section of polymer network is with much higher speed
Rate cures, so the radically curing part of resin constructs viscosity and polymer architecture, so as to significantly reduce slower curing
Cationic curing material molecular mobility, and then significantly reduce integrally curing speed to unacceptable low rate.This
A problem be it is double cure that hybrid resins are intrinsic, its longer wavelength of modern UV/visible light optical device, compared with low energy and
Aggravate under relatively low strength characteristic.Therefore, applicant have discovered that:It is used for the conjunction of addition process manufacture under ultraviolet/visible light wavelength
The suitable preparation for mixing cured radiation-hardenable composition be not by only change suitable for ultra-violet curing (for example, by based on
The system of 355nm laser) hybrid resin in cation light initiator realize.Inventor has found:It is used for realization
Suitably mix the modern addition that cured this " directly excitation " mechanism is insufficient for utilizing ultraviolet/visible light optics
The processing status of method manufacture system.
On the contrary, applicant it was unexpectedly found that:In order to manufacture system using the addition process of ultraviolet/visible light optics
Realize in system and sufficiently cure, need the combination of one or more replacement mechanisms on the contrary.It is by similar to photosensitization first
" indirectly excitation " mechanism.Second is the cationic polymerization mechanism promoted by free radical.The third functionally similar mechanism

In general, free radical photo-initiation is divided into:The photoinitiator of free radical is formed by cracking, it is referred to as " Norrish
I types ";With the photoinitiator that free radical is formed by taking hydrogen by force, it is referred to as " Norrish II types ".Norrish II types are light-initiated
Agent needs hydrogen donor, which plays the role of radical source.It is to be based on bimolecular reaction due to triggering, so Norrish
II types photoinitiator is usually slower than the Norrish I type photoinitiators that the unimolecule based on free radical is formed.On the other hand,
Norrish II type photoinitiators are typically considered to have more preferable absorbing properties in near-ultraviolet spectrum region.However, invention
People has now been found that:II type photoinitiators are poorly suitable in composition according to the present invention, this is because due to they represent it is quick
Agent and the oxidizable group such as such as combination of amine, it is expected that they can suppress cationic curing.

In the presence of photodissociation, result in the free radical (ketyl type free radical) that is produced from carbonyls and another supplied derived from hydrogen
The free radical of body.The photopolymerization of vinyl monomer is typically to be triggered by the free radical of hydrogen donor generation.Due to steric hindrance and
The delocalization of unpaired electron, ketyl radical is to vinyl monomer usually without reactivity.

The various light that novel mixture can also contain the transmitting beta radiation to different wave length and have different sensitivity draw
Agent is sent out, to better profit from UV light sources.There is the use of the known photoinitiator of different sensitivity to transmitting beta radiation in addition
Method manufacturing field is known, and can be selected according to the radiation source of such as 351nm, 355nm, 365nm, 385nm and 405nm
Select.In this context, it is advantageous that so select various photoinitiators, and be used so that with a certain concentration by institute
Emission lines produce identical optical absorption.
In one embodiment, photosensitizer is fluorone, such as bis- iodo -3- butoxy -6- fluorones of 5,7-, 5,7-
Two iodo -3- hydroxyl -6- fluorones, bis- iodo -3- hydroxyl -6- fluorones of 9- cyano group -5,7-, or photosensitizer is
And its any combination.
When using photosensitizer, the other photoinitiators absorbed under shorter wavelength can be used.This photoinitiator
Example includes:Benzophenone, such as benzophenone, 4- methyl benzophenones, 2,4,6- tri-methyl benzophenones and dimethoxy
Base benzophenone, and 1- hydroxy phenyl ketone classes, such as l- hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketones, phenyl (1- hydroxyisopropyls) first
Ketone, 2- hydroxyls -1- [4- (2- hydroxyl-oxethyls) phenyl] -2- methyl isophthalic acids-acetone and 4- isopropyl phenyls (1- hydroxyisopropyls)
Ketone, benzil dimethyl ketal and oligomeric-[2- hydroxy-2-methyls -1- [4- (1- methyl ethylenes) phenyl] acetone] (come from
The Esacure KIP 150 of Lamberti).
It may be noted that:Some cation light initiators have low absorption at preferable photochemistry wavelength.For example, one
In kind embodiment, addition process interested manufacture application is using in the UV/ optics about at 400nm with peak strength.
Salt compounded of iodine (such as the Bluesil PI 2074 of Bluestar Silicones are available from, it is available from the Irgacure 250 of Ciba
Iodine (4- aminomethyl phenyls) [4- (2- methyl-propyls) phenyl]-hexafluorophosphate (1-), and it is available from GE Silicones'
UV9380c) there is directly absorbing for deficiency at preferable wavelength, it is therefore desirable to excessively concentration, sensitizer or some other machines
System is sufficient light-initiated to induce.Therefore, absorbed sometimes using triplet sensitizer (such as thioxanthene ketone class and Michelers ketone)
Actinic energy, then transfers energy into iodine initiator in an efficient way.However, thioxanthones and Michelers ketone tendency
In formed orange or red, there are safety issue, although and they have obvious photochemistry be absorbed into 430nm,
Under the curing optical wavelength of about 400nm, they cannot effectively be sensitized light reaction.
Therefore, in one embodiment, chloropropyl thioxanthones (CPTX) is the suitable sensitizer of iodine initiator, especially
It is to be used in stereolithography, because it without significant light absorbs and produces the shallower system of color in more than 500nm
Product.
In order to reduce the concentration of the sensitizer used in preparation and prevent may by rather high concentration sensitizer to combination
Adverse effect caused by the final physical property of thing, being preferably used in 400nm has the sensitizer of high extinction coefficient.For example, two
Benzophenone may act as triplet sensitizer in some cases, but for example in the frequency tripling YAG laser of work about at 355nm
Under the optical maser wavelength of device (Coherent AVIA model #355-1800), extinction coefficient is about 108 liters/mole-cm.It is another
Aspect, using identical laser, when under the same laser wavelength of about 400nm, extinction coefficient the disappearing for benzophenone of CPTX
Almost 25 times of backscatter extinction logarithmic ratio (2585 liters/mole-cm).This shows:The CPTX of about 1/25 concentration may be only needed to come in preparation
Equivalent optical absorption is provided.Therefore, in the case where curing optical wavelength and being more than 380nm, sensitizer preferably (but is not required
) have higher than 300 liters/mole-cm or higher (such as higher than 1000 liters/mole-cm, preferably above 2000 liters/rub
You-centimetre) extinction coefficient.
Although the activity of cation light initiator can be improved using CPTX by teaching, trigger with above-mentioned cationic photopolymerization
The sensitizer that agent is applied in combination is not necessarily limited to this.Multiple compounds can be used as photosensitizer, including heterocycle and condensed ring aromatic
Hydrocarbon, organic dyestuff and aromatic ketone.The example of sensitizer includes JV Crivello in Advances in Polymer Science,

Reducing agent
As used herein, reducing agent is in the fluid radiation composition for addition process manufacture according to the present invention
Lost during polymerization in oxidation/reduction chemical reaction or " offers " one or more electronics enable to produce activity it is positive from
The component of son.Although this component is in being subject to the effect of outside stimulus thing (such as in the actinic radiation for being subject to ultraviolet/visible light wavelength
When dissociate) after form free radical before may not have the ability that electronics is easily provided, but they are regarded as being adapted to this hair
The reducing agent of improving eyesight.Under any circumstance, in this redox reaction, it is stated that reducing agent reduces cationic photopolymerization initiation
Agent (or derivatives thereof), thus their own (or after being subject to outside stimulus thing to act on, its free radical) is aoxidized.
The photoinitiated cationic polymerization of monomer (such as epoxides and vinyl ethers) mix cure addition process manufacture should
Necessary effect is played in.Due to the additive used in different application, when using specific spectral sensitivity as target, light
The length flexible of initiation becomes the Fundamentals for the curing performance for determining particular formulations.Therefore, it is (such as modern to longer wavelength
Ultraviolet/visible light optics launched those) light initiation system of especially sensitive cationic polymerization is more and more important.Perhaps
The existing light initiation system for being chiefly used in cationic polymerization is based on using some salt, such as diphenyl iodnium, triphenyl sulfonium salt
With alkoxy pyridines salt.However, unless extra chromophore is merged in salt structure, otherwise these salt are in ultraviolet/visible light
Do not absorbed significantly in spectral regions (in the event of if).It is therefore important that substitution method is found, by the salt easily obtained
Range of sensitivity synthesis expands to ultraviolet/visible light wavelength, is especially considering that and has been designed in ultraviolet/visible light spectrum
The commercially available photoinitiator absorbed is not suitable for being incorporated to due to other reasons mixes this in curing system for addition process manufacture
Actual conditions.

Small part has reached expected purpose.In addition, salt is respectively in the redox reaction with free radical, charge transfer complex
Electron donor compound and sensitizer long term electron excitation state in serve as electron acceptor.In these methods, so-called " from
By base promote " cationic polymerization seemingly produce can trigger monomer cationic polymerization cationic substance one kind additionally have
Effect and flexible mode.Integrated mechanism be related to by salt (On+) with suitable reduction potential aoxidize that photochemistry formed from
